Recent reports have also revealed that the POCO brand will be also arriving in the European market. Now that the POCO is official now in India, the country may get the Pocophone F1 as early as this month.
Rumors have it that the Pocophone F1 is a flagship phone that is fueled by Snapdragon 845 SoC and 6 GB of RAM. It is expected to feature a native storage of 64 GB and it would be also featuring a microSD card slot. It is rumored to house a 5.99-inch IPS LCD display. The notched display is expected to support FHD+ resolution and 19:9 aspect ratio. The rear panel of the phone may feature 12-megapixel + 5-megapixel dual camera setup. The notch of the phone is pegged to house a 20-megapixel selfie camera. The notch of the phone is also expected to include an IR camera and IR illuminator which means the phone will be able to carry face unlock even in dim light conditions.
